The Els Club Desaru Coast – Valley Course celebrated its official open-ing recently, marking another milestone for The Els Club Malaysia portfolio.
One of the golfing world’s most-anticipated openings, the Valley Course was created in partnership between two golfing comrades and fellow Major Champions, Ernie Els Design and Vijay Singh, and puts a seal to the golf development in Desaru Coast.
Els and Singh are both Asian Tour honorary members.
The Els Club Desaru Coast first hit the headlines in 2016, with the opening of the Ocean Course, designed by four-time Major winner Els himself. The South African, however, trusted the vision of his great friend, Singh, for the Valley Course; a first-ever collaboration and one that raises the prestige and appeal of what is already one of the world’s premier destination for golf.
